After a while of no updates to the actual ISO download of HoloISO, the creator of this SteamOS-like Linux distribution has announced the original is now dead. As it's being replaced by the newer immutable HoloISO.
If that was their intention I wouldn’t blame them either but Valve said it would become available for other manufacturers to use when the steam deck was first announced
Isn’t the secret sauce already available, with the issue being that it’s not adapted to run on a wider range of devices? I had the impression HoloISO was just that, but as a community project - putting in all the work to make it installable on various devices (and work correctly)
Can’t really blame them for not giving up the secret sauce competitive advantage 🤷
Other companies are free to put together their own thing with steam and proton

They might lose out on hardware sales but they’ll gain from Store sales.

AFAIK, the only publicly available build is an outdated image based on debian instead of arch and not really worth running due to its state.
